 There we go Can I be heard? Yes, I can yay. Was that Matthew? Yes All right, great. So I think on the call we have Tiffany Angie Donna Vessa Rob Matthew and myself trees and then Holly and mature wealth of the Association staff But we're still missing Jeff Denise and had he Right now, but we of course are we're going to get started These people will Most likely join us a little bit later into this call So today's board meeting. I think it's probably fairly short. We have quite a few things to talk about in the executive session So for the open session, we're going to talk about You know Q&A from Holly on on the operations We're going to do reports from the board committee And then we're going to get an update from the working groups. So with that, I want to give the floor to Holly Okay, well This month we're covering we're covering May in our report and there is Certainly lots of say lots going on especially because I think one of the highlights is that, you know, we had a triple con so that happened But just want to share that we'll get more details about the financials and all the other Metrics around the triple con in next month's board meeting. So that's coming Along with our learnings, but a couple other highlights that point out on for folks I don't know the highlight for anyone else, but I was really excited that we got two factor on medication on Drupal.org Because I'm a nerd and I'm really excited to see that happen It's rolled out right now for users with elevated privileges and you know We'll roll that out more broadly over time But just a huge thanks to Ben Jevins and Greggles and Michael Huss and the folks on the security team for making that happen on Drupal.org That's a big win big one for us And the other big thing on Drupal.org is that we're beginning to work on that content strategy so that the work of developing the strategy is complete and We're excited to start rolling that out because it should make Drupal.org easier to navigate for our key personas Especially folks maybe from learner the skilled And it also gives the folks who are you know, especially our volunteers who are managing various aspects of star dot Drupal.org More control over our permissioning and flexibility with the content in their areas So we're excited to give folks better tools there and the first section that we're going to roll out with the new content strategy in place is why Drupal and I just want to say thank you to the community members out there who've been contributing content for for that section and You know said to see that roll out. So Lots going on at Drupal.org Another big win in the month of May was the D8 Accelerate campaign. We're up to 213,500 dollars. So we have 36,500 to go Not much closer than we were just a couple months ago, but May was a big month. We raised 55,000 dollars Which was huge and part of that was due to Drupal gone. So we had you know folks who were donating Rounding up their purchase price at the Drupal store and donating that way and folks donated at the trivia night But we also had the the big donation from time which was great to announce And then a number of other donations catalyst IT donated $8,000 in May And then a number of projects and companies donated $1,000 each Including something did a great job wrangling the open source developers conference of Australia Made a donation and then site ground and fig leaf and duo consulting all made thousand dollar donations as well So that was a lot of momentum in the month of May and we will You know Continue to ramp that up, but just a reminder to the board members if you have asks out now it's a good time to follow up because we're Just a few months away now from our September goal for that We're close. We're so close and One other announcement to make that I'll put under the highlights is the licensing working group met in the month of May and Created a number of documents to outline how we are to update the licensing policies So just a heads up that there's some changes coming and they'll be posting in the licensing queue What some of those changes will be? But Angie wanted me to specifically mention to folks that one of the biggest shifts That's that's most significant and should make the lives of our developers significantly easier is that the licensing working group is recommending that we drop the GPL requirement for for assets on triple org so images and fonts and and those kinds of Assets in your code base will not have to be GPL license Stop there Any questions on any of those updates? Okay And then as I mentioned in the packet, you know Like for us as an organization just continues to be revenue, which is pacing below budget And that's an issue. We've you know continued to deal with some of that is driven by I think just environmental factors You know where we are in the release cycle for Drupal 8 etc And some of it is just not being able to perform to plan for a variety of other reasons So that continues to be an issue for us But the thing that I want to stress is that well, we're not hitting budget revenue is actually still growing relative to 2014 So the good news is that we do continue to grow It's just not quite as fast as we had hoped for and you know We'll talk more financial numbers during our financials review in the second session So that is that There anything covered that I didn't talk about you guys want to ask questions about or no questions. All right back to me I guess All right report from the board committees. Um, I Believe we said we would just put them in the packet and then people can read them if there are specific questions On the committees Yeah, we got them all all into the packet freeze, right One one question No, it's okay. I Answered it already in my head All right, well, there's no questions. I think we can Move along to the updates from the working groups great Let me just point out also Samir says he's here and Samir. I have unmuted you so you should be good to go if you need Let's see. I do not see She or chairs. Oh, hey, here's Jeff Walpole. Hang on one second. I'm meeting Jeff Walpole. Hello. Can you hear me? Yep Oh That was a chore. Hey Jeff. Good morning. Sorry everyone. I'm remote. Um, hey, there's no passcode for US dialer numbers and you actually have to install the app in order to get on I Will look into that. All right, so I'll be delivering the working group update to This quarter is based on availability of Chairs and those who were involved so and also it's it's going to be a pretty quick one. So that'll be part of this well So just a quick reminder of everyone that's on the working group Big thank you to all the community members who jumped in and who've been working with us And this is a three Drupal dot org working groups that we're specifically referring to Last quarter the big thing from last quarter, you know, we keep mentioning Drupal con Los Angeles That was really big for the working groups as well We did an all working groups meeting on the Monday of that Drupal con week all of the working groups had Representation with the exception of Docs working group But we were able to catch up with Joe Schoenler from the Docs working group throughout the week at the con And so he was able to get caught up on a lot of the processes that we had talked through during that time Which was very nice we walked through what our ideal process would be both from Communicating between the groups and also what the prioritization process looks like because previously only the software or working group Had really been heavily involved in that And we started talking about how we would be mapping the prioritization process to the Drupal association goals as they've been set by the board so that that was all received very positively and we're beginning that work so The other thing that was a big part of Drupal con Los Angeles were the numerous Presentations both from working group members and from staff that pointed back to a lot of the things that we have planned and the Drupal dot org roadmap. We got a whole bunch of just amazing feedback. It was a great opportunity there was a ton of Interest and excitement around the content strategy and the proposed model there lots of feedback on issue workspaces and including some really positive Contributions from from folks who helped us get back past a couple of the stickier problem The core conversations track one of the things that I noticed as I was going back through and listening to a lot of the core conversations is there was a lot of overlap in some of the discussions and There was also a lot of excitement in that track that kind of related back to the Drupal dot org stuff so I think overall there was a ton of great information information sharing and getting a lot of people on the same page Quick Charter update update the executive committee is finalizing the Version of the Drupal org Working group charters that will be brought to the board for approval. That should probably be ready by the next board meeting I'm based on the kind of where they're at in the last conversations that I saw Big reminds a couple reminders of what's going to be included in that a little bit more consistent language between the three charters So that they're all working from a similar place An expansion of the membership So there's an expectation that every working group will have between three and four three and five community members And we're shooting for five for every working group We're also talking about kind of formalizing the process for public meetings with our advisors Similar to what the infrastructure team meetings look like right now where it's a it's a public meeting an opportunity for people to jump in and get involved And I was really excited to see this Racy matrix that is kind of pulling together who's responsible for what areas You know being able to identify who's responsible versus who's accountable versus who's consulted versus Who's informed and I think that's going to be a nice addition for us to have linked off of the charters Trying to change the slides for my computer and that's not gonna work Yeah, so quick updates from each of the chairs and I took these notes just so that I Could speak for them since they weren't gonna be able to make it here today from the content working group The high-level findings and recommendations of the content strategy were presented And there's now a whole set of meta issues that you can track that work and where that's going George pointed out that the RFP for the development design the development of a design system Has been largely completed, but we're putting it on hold based on some Budget conversations that we're having right now. They're the reality is we may not actually have the budget to cover Doing that project at this time. So we're gonna be putting it off most likely That said we can still start with implementing much of the the content model and particularly Holly had mentioned this starting with the wide Drupal section for evaluators And in getting a little bit better as well right now at coordinating our conversations with your comm So that we can share content between those two sites and making sure that the content is aligned Lastly George's planning to put out a blog post in their very near future That's gonna be looking for another one to two community members to join the group for The infrastructure working group the major things here is Narayan is now officially the chair since the last board meeting. So he's been kind of doing a little work on Trying to streamline some cooperation between volunteers and staff Trying to work to find a few new Members that can join that particular working group because we were down to one community member plus Two staff members and so we really want to expand that out again And I believe by the time actually probably between now and the next board meeting We're sending out an email to the board with some recommendations for who we feel could be added to the infrastructure working group They're also doing a lot of work right now with our staff in terms of Kind of rebuilding some integration points with the OSL to reduce our Dependencies on the services that have been causing some reliability issues of late. We've had a kind of a spate of Recent outages that are in some cases not at all the the fault of the open source lab But in many cases, it's because of systems that aren't terribly redundant and there's ways for us to improve upon that Lastly the software working group Tatiana gave us some notes in the last quarter There was a lot of reviewing and providing feedback on the content strategy deliverables There was also a lot of feedback on planning the all-working groups meeting I really wanted to thank Angie and David and Kathy because I think perhaps more than some of the other groups They were really instrumental in helping us put together some of that That schedule and that agenda that we used for the all-working groups meeting In addition, we started brainstorming some possible new members While waiting for those charter updates to be finalized and I think that group would also be looking for Probably two, but there have been discussions about how large should the advisory role of the soft-working group be? And so it could potentially be a little bit bigger than that as well Some quick updates On the strategic roadmap of the account creation and login experience is largely done So that would be falling off the list after the next quarterly prioritization with the working groups Organization and user profile improvements. We're hoping the plan had actually been to Get organization credits on to order profiles in the last two weeks sprint Unfortunately, we had to shift around some resources due to some Things that came up with Drupal CI that gave us an opportunity to speed that up But the hope is in the next the next iteration that we're doing We hope to all organization credits displaying on on organization profiles and user credits showing on user profiles Drupal events continues to be a focus for us improving creating that multi-con site that allows us to run all the Drupal cons from one site Content strategy and design. I've talked quite a bit about that as the infrastructure Stabilization and independence on the Drupal CI front just a quick update there we had members of staff meet with core maintainers last week and Do a basic demo of the MVP that was received very well? We've got basically one or two blockers to completely switching over But we feel really confident in launching and doing dual testing for the next couple weeks And while I'm not a hundred percent sure it's gonna happen today We were actually talking about possibly deploying some of the pieces on Drupal.org as early as today So core maintainers and core would start getting daily tests on both systems simultaneously Which is really exciting. It took a long time to get to that space Lots of volunteer contribution, but this this last few weeks of push from staff has made a Big difference and they've come up with some good workarounds for some things that were kind of long-standing issues to get past and so I Hope Angie doesn't mind me speaking for the core maintainers whenever I say they seem pretty stoked about the the quality of what we were able to demo last week People were super excited and they just want to know when we see it So maybe today It's a nice example of Accelerate funds, right? Yeah, it's a good example of accelerate funds getting a sprint here at the offices And then also Funding the work of great volunteers who are helping Move that particular project along very quickly. So The other thing that's getting really close to a launch and that I'll throw out a quick mention to is localize that Drupal.org We have just a couple of small issues that are remaining open right now And we'll be able to switch over to the upgraded version that's running on D7 Removing that droop late blocker as well and that's been very exciting the remaining items on the list are still on the list and now they'll be Kind of a perp as we as we go through. However, it does bring me to next steps and I keep hitting the wrong keyboard We are working with all the working groups in June and July to Nail down the objectives that are part of the prioritization process and then we're going to be doing prioritization Meetings last week of June first couple weeks of July where we we actually get a Do list that we can work from we're really working to make the initiatives a little bit more Specific so that it's easier for us to say when a particular initiative is done that'll make it a little bit Make it a little bit easier for communication as well But that's that work is it's slotted right now with the working groups for the July time frame And what that will mean is we'll be doing quarterly updates to the initiatives list and we'll be aligning the Working group updates with the quarterly updates of how the prioritization Has been affected by that that process So that's a kind of a bit of a change and I think it's going to make it the quality of the updates that we're able to Provide the board a little bit better, but I do want to end on a quick question Which would be are there anything any other things that you would like to see in the quarterly updates from the working groups that? You're not seeing right now And anything that you would recommend to to make this process better that was about the right right amount of detail Sorry about that trees on meeting you there you go No worries No, the other thing that might be cool is um especially since this happens at a public board meeting is just like to talk a bit more about the Winds and kind of some screenshots and stuff But I think actually the board packet has a lot of that information, but like if there's Something really awesome like when Drupal ci launches, which will happen sometime between this update the next update Maybe just a couple screenshots to show it in action just so people get an idea of what they're paying for if that makes sense Yeah, that'd be great. Thank you. It also gives us an opportunity to Atta boy the team You know excellent I'll get one idea that I had was to You know as we get better and better at these which we are You know, maybe another next step could be to present some of the information more in the roadmap formats But you know timeline, you know with like time as well like here's I don't know here's what we're planning to do in the next three months and then Next three months after a kind of thing. I don't know. I think it could help with things in perspective as well Definitely. I can see uh adding adding that as well Any other bits of feedback? going once Going twice you can always email No, and I always say sold to Ryan because Ryan is most often the one on our team wearing a funny hat He heard his name. He just popped up like a furry dog and he's wearing a funny hat. So once again sold to the man in the funny hat Thanks, josh. It was great. Good to see all these things moving. All right. Is there any other questions in general? If not, I think we can adjourn and move into the executive session Anything else? All righty. Thanks everybody. Thanks for attending Hey, uh holly just a quick logistical note from Jeff. Um, I'm transferring. I'm trying to get in the cab right now getting on that other conference call Gonna be really hard. I'm gonna be late Okay, I'm gonna look into the uh invite there Jeff Yeah, yeah, this one's my fault. I'm literally Okay
